Rugby players dont have a safety culture when it comes to this.
If you can find it on YouTube watch England v Ireland in the 2010 six nations when BOD got a knee to the head from POC.
On the broadcast you can see BOD get up straight away and then falling over totally out of it off the ball. Stephen Ferris starts audibly calling to the ref but by the time the ref looks BOD has already recovered his balance and nothing further happens until there is a break in play. BOD is checked and continues on.
What really needs to happen is that when a scenario like that occurs that Ferris goes to the ref or the captain / vice captain and tells them that BOD needs to go off for a hia. Thats what a safety culture would look like. But players won't do that, as if they're squealing on their teammates. Their team culture is prioritised over safety.
The officials are expected go do this on their behalf but really they cant see and keep track of every player in this way. 3 pairs of eyes on the pitch instead of 33. (And yes the TMO and everyone else off the pitch will see stuff nobody on the pitch sees but the same is also true the other way)
This isn't to condemn Ferris personally, its commonplace, its just the example that sticks out in my mind.
